    I highly doubt you will be able to get away with that.

    Heh okay, thought so. But what about example number 2 ?
    I am not directly asking to click on the ad's, just to Support my site! (right before the ad code)
    Is that legal?

    Any encouragement to click ads is in violation. You cant have any like support us, click these, help us out, etc, etc

    Doesn't anyone read TOS and Policies anymore? Geez, if I had a nickel....

    Right in your title you say "taunt user to click" which means that if you had even SKIMMED the TOS/Policies, you would know damn well that what you are proposing isn't allowed

    I would think that you can get away with example 3 as you do not mentioned anything to hint at clicking the ads. Rather, you are just blending your ads within the site content and this should be ok.

    Hope this helps.

    No,no,no. Incentives clicks are not allowed, also this wastes adwords money. You would be sending advertisers garbage traffic for there money.
